Abstract

Schaltungsanordnung zur Zündung von Hochdruck-Entladungslampen mittels Resonanzzündung durch eine Serienresonanzkreis. Erfindungsgemäß wird die Spannung für eine Zündhilfselektrode durch einen Zündübertrager bereitgestellt, in den die Spannung über einer Induktivität (L1) des Serienresonanzkreises eingespeist wird. Bevorzugt bildet die Induktivität (L1) des Serienresonanzkreises die Primärwicklung des Zündübertragers.

Circuit arrangement for the ignition of high-pressure discharge lamps by means of resonance ignition by a series resonant circuit. According to the invention, the voltage for an auxiliary ignition electrode is provided by an ignition transformer into which the voltage is fed via an inductor (L1) of the series resonant circuit. The inductance (L1) of the series resonant circuit preferably forms the primary winding of the ignition transformer.
